Braces in Los Angeles

Orthodontists in Los Angeles California

When I grow up, I want to be an orthodontist. I looked up orthodontics online and I came across salaries. It says if you work with other orthodontists under someone, you get payed an average $170,000. But private practice, they can make well over $400,000. How does one establish their own private practice? I have been pondering about this question for a while so informative answers will be very much appreciated

Which one is better and cheaper? My mom’s insurance hasn’t kicked in yet and I so we’re hoping to come up with a payment plan until it does, so we need to know which ones cheaper. BTW me and my sister are getting braces so it does matter.
